What is that

I may just do them anyways. I am tired all the time and it’s because I’m not getting anything.

They consider them a slider food

Okay so anyone else have a complete intolerance post op with any kind of meat. My pouch doesn’t like it and I don’t care for it either. I prefer veggies and that’s about it. I’m not really getting any protein in other than the drinks which my program wants me off of. I’m over a month post op right now.

Anyone else get extremely annoyed when they’ve had to get IV fluids and then weigh the next day and you’ve gained a few pounds?! I understand this happens (especially when you got 8 bags within 48 hours) but ugh it just frustrates me. The IV fluids weren’t for dehydration only - I had a stricture develop and had to stay overnights until the surgeon could get me in to fix it. I had finally gotten under 200 lbs too and now I’m back right at 200 lbs... Oh well I guess.. Now I’m just focusing on my fluids and sticking to my nutritionists advice.

Lol thank you! I’ll have to try again when I’m feeling brave and very close to a restroom. ?

You're still in the "introduce new foods one at a time and see how it goes" stage. Try again in a few weeks and see if you can handle it. (Maybe bring it home so you have a bathroom handy ) Yeah I’ll definitely have to try that. I’ve been having a extremely bad time with introducing new foods. I got sick one time but I pretty much just dry heaved and made myself vomit because my chest pain was so bad. I threw up a few tiny bits but it was mainly foam. Is that what everyone calls foamies because I never want to experience that again. Since then it’s been hard for me to not be terrified of eating.

Honestly I didn’t think about that. Thank you! That very well may have been the issue. Hopefully later I can do those because it was the best thing I’ve had since surgery but it made me have some pretty rough issues!

No. I made sure of that when I ordered. They literally take a jar of pickle juice and dump it on there.

So just want to see if anyone had a problem with this but I LOVE pickles! They were my favorite snack before surgery and my NUT said I can’t have a actual pickle yet but a dill pickle snow cone is fine. Problem is it gave me some serious bathroom issues like Went down fine but 20 minutes later I was having “never trust a fart” issues. What the actual heck caused that because I seriously didn’t think that would be a issue and neither did my NUT. ??‍♀️ I’m almost 4 weeks post op and on my second stage of soft foods (fish, deli meat, stuff like that). Sorry for the TMI but I’m seriously confused on what the deal was.
